That Scope isn't "Too Much" for a 22? Nice job though! I'm doing something similar with my Mossberg 702(2X25's, Red/Green Multi Reticle, Sling, Bipod),...so far have the Mags & the optic, never seem to figure out to put the $$ aside to get it mounted and sighted in. the Optic is the TruGlo 2X42. Ordered the Bipod last week,., and I'm using an Old 1903 Sling until I either buy or make a Paracord one, or get another leather one..the Canvas works but it's not the most comfortable. Last will be some sort of "paint job," Probably Gray & Black Tiger stripe. Hopefully the mini Rails coming with the Bipod will allow me to mount the sling. I also need to find a few extra bucks for more Mags..

Don't blame you but I think you jinxed me--shot the ARX today, ran thru a couple of mags of federal bulk and blazer with no issues but on the last 50 which were Thunderbolt, I had 2 FTFs--big dent on rim of casing but no bang.
Guess there's no "big bang theory" for T-bolt other than low quality.

Guys, the priming compound in rimfire ammo is dropped in the case, the case is then spun, spinning causes the compound to be forced to the outer most of the rim.
Sometimes there is not enough of said priming compound put in the case, it just happens with the cheaper ammo. Quality control is not at 100% for them
If you do have a good firing pin strike on the case rim, but the round did not go off,,,,,,,,,re-chamber the round, But rotate the case 180 degrees off the last pin strike on the case. 99.9% of the time the round will go BANG this time.
